I am so elated to update that Sweetheart has been picked up by her new mom today and that she continues to amaze us with her ability to adjust. She is now an energetic and mischievous little filly, bouncing everywhere despite her foot deformity. She has adjusted well to wearing her splint and does not let it hinder her from enjoying life. Her new owner is so enthusiastic, optimistic, and has such a desire to better this little filly's life. She has already gained our respect for taking this little filly and planning a life as a therapy horse in military hospitals, nursing homes, etc. Just in less than a day, this little filly has been to Pet Smart, ridden in a shopping cart, gotten new booties, and has a new prosthesis/splint in the making. She is now playing in a motel room in TN and being loved and enjoyed by her new owners. They keep us updated every few minutes. She is doing great!!!
Sweetheart's (there may be a new name in the making too) future now looks much brighter for her. Thank you, thank you to her new owners from the bottom of our hearts. Enjoy her, look after her, protect her, and may she bring much happiness to you in return.
I am sure the new owners will make an announcement soon but in the meantime, you are invited to view Sweetheart's myspace page at myspace.com\sweetheartmini
